The Canned Goods.

"Oyer l,000.000,000 cans are used
annually by the Gamers of this coun-
try" said dealer in canned good.
"a box of tin plates, which weighs
from 108 to 112 pounds, will make
between seyen and eight cases of
cans. A case contains a dozen three
pound cans, the general size, or two
dozen one pound cans. Taking the
average, box Of tin will make 100
'ans. Thus. you see, about, 10000,
900 boxes of tin plates are necessary
very year to make the cans to hOI:i
the goods packed in this country.
The weight of the metal alone il
something like 1l0,0O0.000 pounds.
and the cost about $40 900, 0OO."
Are all the canned goods brought
to New York ?"
"New York city is the main source
Of supply to the rest Of the United
States for canned goods as we'll as for
other articles. 1t is also the prime i.
pal port from which canned goods
are sent to Europe, and there is a
large trade done now in this class of
business between the United States
and the Old World. The process Of
canning has enabled so many Amer
lean products to be sent in good order
all over the world that canned goods
now form al important factor in the
export trade. The bulk of the can
ned goods, therefore, comes here. al
though other large cities are often
supplied direct from the place of can

The Parish Minister'S Question.

TIE parish minister in a town in
Scotland, examining the schools, adj
dressed the boys thus: "Well, lads.
can any of you tell me why black
sheep eat less than white sheep ?,'
There was no answer, and the min.
lister, with pretended severity, said
he was sorry to see them not able
to answer such simple question, but
he would give them another. Can
any of you lads tell me what Bishop
of the Church Of England has the
largest hat?" They were again cor
nered. "Whatl don't you know,n
said the minister, "that the Bishop
with the largest hat is the Bishop
with the largest head Now you
haye your turn and put some ques.
lions to me to see if | can answer
them" A little chap of about seven
years got on to his feet, and cried out
in shrill piping voice, "Can you
tell me why millers wear white
caps? ?" The minister was astounded,
and could find no solution of the
problem, mo, my boy" said the
minister, at length, II cannot tell
why millers wear white caps. What
is the reason ?" "Well, SIR" replied
the young shaver, "millers wear
white CAPS Just to cover their heads"

FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS CONTEMPT. ATED.
The rapid growth of the RECORD UNION
and the WEEKLY UNION in circulation
which is wide, extended and constantly ex-
banding in its far-reaching and general
character, and augmenting in its local i'm
portance and extent, greatly exceeding
that OF any other interior journal,
make the demands upon the me-
chanical portion of the Office very
heavy. The increasing rail facilities
for early dispatch of these papers to the
chief sections of Central and Northern
California, augment the demands, and
make it necessary that our press facilities
should be increased. With this fully in
view, it is in contemplation to procure for
the two journals a new perfeeting press of
the most rapid and economic pattern. with
folding attachment. The two presses in
use by the RECORD UNION and WEEKLY
UNION are fine pieces of mechanism. but il
is desirable to supplement them, or replace
them, as stated, with a perfecting press Of
greater speed, in order to meet the grow
ing Importance Of the paper and its in
creasing circulation, and to enable it to 20
to press at q later hour and thus furnish
more early morning dispatches. The
reference to presses very naturally recalls
the inquiry this Office has several times
entered upon regarding water power for
presses, lathes and machinery in general
in this city. We have found that some
presses of light character have been oper-
ated in job Offices in Sacramento By water
motors. But owing TO the irregularity
and insuifieiency of the pressure from the
Holly Works these experiments have been
abandoned The subject leads us, by the
natural sequence of its consideration, to
contemplation of the great possibilities for
industry here if water power of the proper
force and steadiness could be furnished.
Certainly the mechanical department Of
the REcoRD-USIoS would abandon steam
power and adopt the safer and more
cleanly and economic water motor, if it
were possible to procure pressure sufficient,
and We find from inquiry that the
